Hi, i am working on the jailhouse[1] project and am currently looking at inter-VM communication. We want to connect guests directly with virtual consoles based on shared memory. The code complexity in the hypervisor should be minimal, it should just make the shared memory discoverable and provide a signaling mechanism. We would like to reuse virtio so that Linux-guests will eventually just work

FYI, ivhsmem is used here: http://dpdk.org/browse/memnic/tree/ http://dpdk.org/browse/memnic/tree/pmd/pmd_memnic.c#n449 There are some few other references too, if needed. Best regards, Vincent

My advice is to steer clear of it. Could you elaborate on why you advice against it? Henning
